What are Timely applications?
Timely is your first chance to apply for courses through VTAC. By applying for courses during this window, you can:
- lock in your VTAC preferences earlier
- pay the lowest application fee ($83 for current Year 12 students).
Timely applications for 2027 intake opened on Monday 3 August and will close at 5pm on Monday 28 September.
You will still be able to apply for courses through your VTAC account after the Timely period. However, you will need to pay a higher application fee.
